in this work, the effects of silicon (si) supplementation were studied in pistachio (pistacia veral. cv ahmadaghaii) plants exposed to high salinity stress. plants were grown in pots undercontrol and salt (ec=15 ds m-1) conditions without or with si treatment (0.35 g na2sio3 kg-1soil) under field conditions. salt stress reduced the plants’ growth significantly in both –si and+si plants; however...

this experiment was conducted to study the effect of plastic mulch on the growth and some physiological characteristics of two strawberry cultivars (paros and queen elisa) under drought stress. a factorial experiment was performed based on randomized complete block design with four treatments, including mulch, without mulch, normal irrigation (control) and deficit irrigation (-10 bar) with thre...

In this work, the effects of silicon (Si) supplementation were studied in pistachio (Pistacia veraL. cv Ahmadaghaii) plants exposed to high salinity stress. Plants were grown in pots undercontrol and salt (EC=15 dS m-1) conditions without or with Si treatment (0.35 g Na2SiO3 Kg-1soil) under field conditions. Salt stress reduced the plants’ growth significantly in both –Si and+Si plants; however...

the responses of yield and yield components of 24 advanced bread wheat genotypes to pre- and post-anthesis drought stress conditions were studied at ardabil agricultural re-search station during the 1997-2000 cropping seasons. results showed that genotypes produced significantly lower spikes no./m2, seeds no./spike and grain yield under pre- than in post-anthesis drought stress conditions. howe...

to evaluate the growth regulatory effect of chlormequat chloride (ccc) under drought stress conditions on three barley cultivars, a field study was conducted under badjgah agro climatic conditions (altitude 1810 m, longitude 52° 46´, and latitude 29° 50´) during 2003-2004 growing season. a randomized complete block based split- split plot of four replications was employed with two moisture leve...

ornithine is a non-proteinogenic amino acid, which plays an essential role in the metabolism of plants. regard to the chirality of the molecule, physiological response of the plant cells to its two enantiomers have not been widely investigated yet. in the present study, suspension-cultured tobacco cells were treated with 1 mm of d- and lenantiomers of ornithine in normal conditions as well as u...

a field experiment was carried out during 2001 in the experimental fields of sugar beet seed institute in karaj. the objective of this study was to determine the response of some quantitative and qualitative traits of three sugar beet lines subjected to continuous water stress and normal conditions. three sugar beet lines 7219-p.69, bp-karaj and 7112 as tolerant, semi tolerant and sensitive to ...
